At a work function, the "ice breaker" question was like "what is your biggest guilty pleasure" and my answer was "I feel no guilt whatsoever from the things that bring me pleasure" :) #liveYourBestLife

Bonnie Raitt wrote a song about organ transplantation. This year. And it won the Grammy for best song. And it's beautiful. Have tissues ready.

Grateful for the amazing women scientists who mentored me and profoundly shaped my career, in med school (Martha Zeiger), residency (Patricia Donahoe), and junior faculty (Linda Fried and Karen Bandeen-Roche) to name a few. #InternationalWomensDay

Airplane seats should not recline into the seat behind them. It's shared space, it makes it nearly impossible to use a laptop, it causes unnecessary conflict, there's no good compromise, and seats don't recline like that in any other settings. Go ahead, fight me.

Judges have no place practicing medicine or being the FDA. This is offensive. There are >20y data in millions of people proving that this pill is as safe as ibuprofen and 4x safer than penicillin. It's also 10x safer than Viagra... Gonna ban that, Male Judges? Didn't think so

After 3 very hard years, today marks the end of the federal COVID-19 Public Health Emergency. This is an amazing celebration of science, but we need to remember that this is NOT over. Especially for those who are immunocompromised. THIS IS NOT OVER.

Today's supreme court ruling, by a majority white privileged group of justices who clearly don't understand what privilege means, is offensive and will degrade education in the United States. Shame on you.

While CNN was doom reporting, we were swooning over rainbows, group hugging, cheering for toilet paper deliveries, making shoes out of zip lock bags and duct tape, and hosting an incredible all night dance party on our muddy dance floor. (photo not mine) #BurningManFestival

4 yrs ago we asked the government to break the decades old Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network monopoly and "allow more nimble and effective specialty contractors to offer their capabilities." Yesterday Biden signed the bill to do this! amjtransplant.org/article/S1600-…

Another year celebrating the anniversary of the most colossal fail in my career, and the reminder that, with hard work and the right attitude, things can eventually turn out amazing. Sending much love and positive energy to anyone struggling right now. #MATCHDAY

donating a kidney is safer than it's ever been -- mortality from donor nephrectomy now one-third of what it was a decade ago, less than 1 in 10,000 -- spread the word! jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…
